We really appreciated having Ann as a dog and house sitter. She had a wonderful rapport with our dog. She communicated daily with texts and pictures so that we felt connected and assured of our dogs care. I highly recommend Ann!

About: I hope your dog likes Vizslas! Kill two birds with one stone by letting them socialize while I care for them. Got an energetic pup? I’m a distance runner! I’ll take them running with me and return them to you tired and happy! I just moved to the area, can be very flexible with time, and would love to meet the local dog lovers and help them out as we all need a pet sitter here and there! Dog sitting also ties in to my business as a Field Rep with Life’s Abundance pet food! Contact me if you’re looking to switch to a healthier meal for your best friend! I’ll keep up with Crate training, leash training and any other daily lessons needed, daily exercise will depend on the dog’s energy demands, will follow owner’s instructions exactly on how to feed and time of day.

We couldn’t be happier with Lillian! She stayed at our home for 6 days and took wonderful care of our 3 dogs. From the start, she was communicative and reliable, keeping us updated regularly so we could enjoy our time away with total peace of mind. What really set Lillian apart was how much she went above and beyond. Not only did she keep our pups happy and well-cared for, but she also picked up after them in the yard and even vacuumed the living room! She also kept the dogs busy by going on walks and taking them to the park. We highly recommend Lillian to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring dog sitter. She treated our home and our fur babies with so much respect, and we will absolutely be booking her again!

I highly recommend Peyton for any pet care needs. She took great care of our lab when we were away for almost two weeks. Her messages, pictures and videos made it possible for us to enjoy our vacation without any concerns about our dog. She came and met him before we left, and assured me that she had him covered until we returned, in case we ran into any delays. Our dog enjoyed his vacation as much as we enjoyed ours, thanks to Peyton!

Zachary was absolutely fantastic with our pets! They were so relaxed and happy while we were away, and we felt completely at ease knowing he was looking after them. He was such a pleasure to work with, and we’ll definitely be reaching out to him again. Blu and Jif send their thanks for taking such good care of them! 🐾

About: Hi, I’m Josie! :) Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them genuinely makes me happy. 🤍 I offer boarding, daycare, walks, house sitting, and drop-in visits with a calm, attentive, hands-on approach to care. I’m home full-time & provide a safe environment where dogs can feel comfortable, relaxed, and truly at ease. I have experience with dogs of different breeds, sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I always make sure each dog feels understood, cared for, and comfortable. Because I’m home throughout the day, dogs get lots of supervision, attention, outdoor time, affection, play, and enrichment. I love creating a fun but calm environment where dogs can feel safe while still getting mental stimulation and interaction tailored to their personality and energy level. Whether your dog loves playing, exploring, relaxing in the sun, sniffing around outside, or just staying close by, I adjust their day to what makes them happiest and most comfortable, and I love sending updates while doing it! I have a fenced backyard where dogs can safely run, explore, sunbathe, and play while being closely supervised. I also provide enrichment throughout the day through toys, puzzles/sniffing games, outdoor time, water play, walks, and one-on-one interaction. My dog Ivy is very friendly, laid back, calm, and enjoys being around other dogs. She loves having another dog around to play with, relax beside, or explore with, and gets along great and is very respectful and predictable with other furry friends. 😊 Dogs are welcome on furniture and beds if that’s what they’re accustomed to, and my home is a calm, quiet environment with no children present, allowing them to feel comfortable and at home during their stay. Your pup’s safety and wellbeing are my #1 priority! Please feel free to message me if you’d like to set up a meet and greet, book a service, or if you have any questions about my care. 🐾

We are newbies to Rover and were a little nervous at first. Alex totally put our minds at peace immediately with her professionalism and sweet personality. Prior to our trip Alex came and met our little gang to learn all the ins and outs of the dogs routines. While we were gone we received fun pictures and updates of how things were going which meant a lot to us. Our dogs were loved up and cared for by the Best! Alex is are go-to from now on, we absolutely adore her!

I am available on weekday evenings and throughout the weekends, offering flexible and reliable pet care to accommodate your schedule and your pet’s unique needs.

About: I’ve taken care of and loved many different dogs my whole life! I had dogsat for my family, friends, my nanny family, and rover for over 5 years! I currently nanny a few days out of the week, so my schedule is normally pretty flexible! I also don’t have any dogs of my own, which makes boarding at my home very easy! Making sure dog is trained, or if not yet, making sure I have a leash or fence when letting dog out! Keeping a good eye too!

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and started helping care for them when I was about 10 years old. From neighbors and friends to family, people have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and stay with their pets. I’ve owned and cared for all kinds of dogs—from small Shih Tzus to large Newfoundlands and even multiple Great Danes at once. I’m comfortable with different personalities, whether your dog is energetic, shy, or just wants a calm companion nearby. I currently have a mini Bernedoodle named Nalu, so I understand daily routines, exercise needs, and how important it is to know your dog is safe and happy while you’re away. I’ve also spent several years helping care for a large group of feral cats, which taught me patience, consistency, and how to read animal behavior closely. I’m reliable, attentive, and genuinely love being around animals. I’ll make sure your pet feels cared for and comfortable—and I’ll keep you updated so you have peace of mind. My schedule is very flexible, and I’m available starting at 7:00 a.m. for drop-ins, walks, and pet care in your home. If I’m house sitting, I can provide more consistent, full-day and overnight care depending on your pet’s needs. I do my best to follow your pet’s normal routine—feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship—so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I’m reliable, communicative, and aim to make scheduling easy for you. When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize keeping everything consistent with your routines and preferences. I follow feeding schedules, walking routines, and any specific instructions closely. I take time to understand each pet’s personality and needs, whether that means active play, quiet companionship, or a little extra patience. I’m attentive, respectful of your space, and committed to making sure your pet feels safe, calm, and well cared for. I also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: Hi! I’m a dependable and caring pet sitter/dog walker, and I know how important it is to have someone you can truly trust with your pets. I’ve taken care of various types of animals since I was little! Whether your dog needs a quick potty break, a long walk to burn energy, or calm in-home care while you’re away, I focus on keeping their routine consistent and stress-free. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, energy levels, and temperaments—including strong pullers and shy or anxious pups. I currently work full time, but usually I have a day or two off during the week and most weekends off. I will be able to provide care for your pet before or after the days I work, or most days/weekends that I am off. My townhome community has small grassy backyard patio areas and a dog park less than 100 feet away from my home, and I have one 3 year old pup named Tank (white shepherd/lab mix) who would love to become best friends with your pup!

About: As far back as I can remember, my family always had at least one dog/cat, each one of them holding a special place in my heart. I, now, am a proud dog parent of two Blue Heelers, Izzy and Brutus. I love every kind of dog and cat. I have experience with elder dog care and puppy care. I have a job where I work Sunday, Monday, and Wednesday. All 12 hour days. So, I would be completely booked up on those days. The other days I would be incredibly happy to spend time with your little loved one! I would make sure to have clear and open conversations with you about your animals throughout the day/night. I can give updates on when they go to the bathroom. I can, also, send pictures of them.

About: With over 10 years of experience, I combine a passion for animals with professional expertise. As a nurse, I understand the importance of compassionate care, and that’s exactly what I provide for your furry family members. Meet the Team: As a seasoned pet sitter, I’ve cared for countless dogs, cats, and other critters. My own pets are my pride and joy, and I treat every pet I care for as if they were my own. My Little Helpers: With three children under the age of 7, our home is always bustling with energy and laughter. Your pets will enjoy the playful company of our little ones during their stay. I am also a professional photographer and would love to capture some fun photos of your furry friend! Ask me about my add on photography service! Between my husband and I, someone is always home. It would not be a problem if your pet would need frequent bathroom breaks. As a part time nurse, I have plenty of time to care for your pet. I also have a cat that keeps to himself. He is allowed to free roam the main floor. They play outside whenever I am out. Your animal will be treated like my own pet with your typical rules and requests respected.

About: I have lived with and taken care of numerous animals in my life. Growing up on a farm gave me a love for animals and taught me how to properly care for them. I grew up living with cats, horses, dogs, etc. I currently have one cat named Blaze who is a part of the family. Due to Blaze being intolerant to dogs I will not be offering any in-home dog sitting services. I will be more than happy to take care of your family through drop-in playtime, walks, or overnight stays depending on your needs. I am currently enrolled at the local university pursuing a major in architecture. Through my career of personal aid visiting different families in need, I have become familiar with the neighborhoods around town as well as the parks you may want your pet to visit. I am looking forward to meeting you and your family. I currently work on the weekend, and I also attend college. This frees up a lot of my time during the week. I love helping out others and seeing the animals in our community. As mentioned I have one cat, he loves to engage in chase and will either chase me or a Lazer pointer. I will meet all of you requirements as well as provide cuddles and play.
